The Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (ICSA) is a professional body that certifies company secretaries through examination and post qualifications programmes. It has three membership grades: GradICSA for members that pass the exams, Associate for higher level members and Fellow for more senior members.[1][2] It has 37,000 members[3] and was founded in 1891. The Institute was granted a Royal Charter in 1902.

ICSA is one of eleven professional bodies whose members are allowed by the Charities Act 2011 to conduct independent examination of charities whose gross income exceeds £250,000 but is not otherwise subject to statutory audit.[4]
